ESSEC Business School PhD in Management
ESSEC's PhD program in Management applies social science disciplines and research methods to management problems. It prepares students for an academic career by providing solid training in research skills and deep knowledge in major developments and debates in the field. The program emphasizes the abilities necessary to integrate different approaches in order to create a sound and challenging research perspective.
To achieve these objectives, our first and second year students need to acquire theoretical foundations and methodological skills and they could specialize along four main specializations: strategy, entrepreneurship, organizational behavior or human resource management. In the third and fourth year, students focus on their dissertation research and attend professional development workshops aimed at bolstering their professional skills.
ESSEC offers a generous package of tuition waiver, scholarships and conferences funding for the all duration of the program (4 years). No student is admitted without external or ESSEC funding. Application deadline is May 15th, 2016 for entrance in September 2016.
